Crazy Joe Davola

2:04pm

Analytics are primarily driven by scoring margins, adjusted for the quality of the opponent

Indy Coug

Sounds like you prefer resume metrics, such as SOR, SP+ resume, or K Ford Most Deserving

TCuz

2:10pm

Losses just need to be weighted heavily against a team. A 4 loss Bama team is not a top 10 team (top 5 in some of those)

Crazy Joe Davola

The purpose of FPI is as a predictive tool. Maybe that’s the disconnect
